Step 4. Determine the SAS target requirements.
Step 5. Perform a safety check.
a.Make sure the drives are inserted properly.
b.Close the cabinet of the host system.
c.Turn power on after completing the safety check.
Step 6.
The controller then detects the RAID configuration from the configuration data on the drives.
1.6.7Drive Migration
Drive migration is the transfer of a set of hard drives in an existing configuration from one controller to another. The drives must remain on the same channel and must be reinstalled in the same order as in the original configuration. The controller to which you migrate the drives cannot have an existing configuration.
Note: Only complete configurations can be migrated; individual virtual disks cannot be migrated.
Note: Drive roaming and drive migration cannot be supported at the same time.
Follow these steps to migrate drives:
Step 1. Make sure that you clear the configuration on the system to which you migrate the drives, to prevent a configuration data mismatch between the hard drives and the NVRAM.
Note: When you migrate drives, move only the disks that make up the virtual disk (not all the physical disks in an array), so you do not see an NVRAM mismatch error (providing a configuration is on the destination controller). The NVRAM mismatch error appears only if you move all of the physical drives to the other controller.
Step 2. Review all safety information provided with the server; then, turn off the server and all attached devices and unplug the server and device power cords.
